The Problem with Babies Who Sleep Through the Night?

Engorgement that wakes you up anyway. 3:45 a.m. and my boobs woke me up SCREAMING. They feel and actually LOOK like bags of frozen peas. Bump-eeee! Ow. Yes, I am committing a breastfeeding sin by pumping, but I am in So. Much. Discomfort. I can’t get back to sleep.

Bags of peas!! Exactly! Ugh.
Try just pumping 1-2 ounces per side, then weaning yourself down to just hand expressing into a towel until you can get back to sleep.
It’ll get better. I’m still YOWSERS engorged in the morning though. If he doesn’t eat both sides I have to pump them before I can do any sort of activity or leave the house.
